7th Grade: Originality in Art

Carmel's 7th graders totally transformed van Gogh's famous work, turning the well-known celestial swirls and quiet hills of "Starry Night" into everything from blue roses to alien invaders. 

"I believe that no art is original, because art is based off of experiences in life and things that you've seen. Artists get their ideas from other peoples' artwork." --Destiny

"In my opinion, all art is original. All people have different meaning and messages in their artwork...Even if someone tries to copy something, their work of art is still original because it came through their hands."
--Chris
